The titles of the sections are:

I found "Letter of Representation", but am not convinced that it's right.

Danke.

A letter of presentation looks like this: http://www.umc.com/English/pdf/AR2000-Special Disclosures.pd...
Wenjer Leuschel (X) Sep 11, 2004:
An auditor's certificate would look like this: http://www.sla.org/chapter/ctx/ac.doc.
Is that what you are translating?

letter of representation

or "management's letter of representation" or "management representation letter" is absolutely correct, Ron.

This is the letter in which management represents to the auditors that all necessary information has been provided, that this information is complete and accurate, that no material facts have been omitted, etc.

A standard term for a standard document.

The IDW also sells illustrative German Vollständigkeitserklärungen and English letters of representation, BTW.
Peer comment(s):
agree Dr. Fred Thomson : Confirmed by Hamblock/Wessels. This is apparently the correct term of art and should be used.

Thanks Fred. It's unusual for a term like this to be given correctly in a dictionary, even in HW (which is the only larger business/finance dictionary worth having).

declaration of completeness

I've used this many times and never had it queried. The only reason why I'm entering my own answer is that I disagree with "integrity".
